Rt. 313 may flow better by 2012

Getting stuck behind a truck making a left turn on busy two-lane Route 313 is no fun.

That is generous giving us a turning lane but it will only cause more problems when the construction starts!

I think Butthead and I are going to see eye to eye on this subject.

Having driven that stretch of 313 for 5 years, I can tell you that a turning lane there will do nothing for anyone. The problem with 313 are the lights at Stump Road and in Dublin. This is just going to be a big waste of money and time. Unfortunately there is no simple solution to this mess but this certainly is not the answer.

This is what happens when you try to put 10 pounds of crap into a 2 pound bag.

The speed limit on 313 between Ferry road and Dublin is 45 not 55. It has been lowered due to more developments exiting onto the road. Nobody is going 55 on that road-75 is more like it except during rush hour. So next time you're doing 55 in a 45 zone listen for the police sirens, they'll be for you. It's at least a $100.00 ticket.

Read the other story about speed traps. They won't go after you until 12 mph over
